The
Fillmore Family Seniors Services Fund
In
2005, our foundation created the Fillmore Family Seniors
Services Fund.
Recognizing that there is a growing population of largely
invisible LGBTQ seniors, who are increasingly isolated by
the need for sexual ambiguity when seeking support, the
mission of this fund is to lessen the physical, emotional
and social isolation of LGBTQ elders by supporting the nutrition,
housing and health needs of these community elders.
Each year the foundation designates funds that may be awarded
to an organization(s) that delivers programs, services or
care to ageing and older LGBT persons. The fund also provides
financial support for LGBTQ seniors in need of financial
assistance with cost of living expenses, including direct
care expenses.
If you know someone who would benefit from this fund, please
contact the foundation.
